2. Are pets allowed at The Butterfly Pavilion?
In most cases, yes, we do allow pets at our venue. However, pets must remain on a leash and must be attended to at all times. The client is responsible for cleaning up after the pet, whether that means having a friend or family member tend to them, or hiring a pet service. If a member of our staff finds leftover remnants the next day, a disposal fee will be charged. If you have a question about our pet policy, please contact us.

The amount of things that can be customized at our venue is almost limitless. A few examples of how guests have customized our venue in the past are: using different lighting packages, bringing in furniture pieces, having live music stages, and having food trucks. We’ve even had a couple bring in an aerial silks artist who used the beams in our venue for her performance. Like we said, the options are almost limitless, so just ask us about what you’d like to include at your event.
